Not look to the altars; not resort or trust to them, or to the worship offered to idols upon them. The work of his hands; their own inventions; for otherwise the altars made by God's command were the work of men's hands. The groves, which were devised and planted by men, as fit places for the worship of their gods; and therefore were forbidden, Deuteronomy 16:21 1 Kings 14:15. The images, worshipped in their groves. The word properly signifies images of the sun, either having the form and shape of the sun, or at least erected to his honour and worship; of which see Deuteronomy 4:19, Deuteronomy 17:3 2 Kings 23:5,11 Jer 8:2 7:18 44:17,18.
